Good. Next needs to come non-voluntary deferraks, then layoffs. Maybe if half the white collar work-at-home force got laid off we'd be over this shit.

they used to. we fired them for some very basic errors in drafting a merchandising agreement for IFNB-branded cumrags. during the negotiations we discovered the senior partner and two of his associates lifting clothed in a nearby Equinox, so none of it was surprising.

we moved over a lot of that business to Steptoe & JOHNSON
